this post is probably going to be deleted for being pointless, but for me Mio's appeal is due to being left-handed and that she plays bass. Which is so very similar with me. Anyone who play bass is sexy-- even more so with added yuri elements.

OK, i actually can't play any musical instrument (not even castanets!). But whatever.

If there's a Final Fantasy game that I must put my personal seal of disapproval on, it's Crisis Core. I mean, just look at how this Genesis Rhapsodos dude is raping the canon. It's bad. As in, fanfiction bad.

*wave* Hi another certified Mio-tard here. *sigh* I've always had a weakness for shy characters and tsunderes. Well Mio is definitely not a tsundere, but she certainly fits the bill. GAHH! I'm a Mio+holic! Dangnabit!

Still don't fully understand why this one is the most popular. One argued it was because of the difficulty of sticking her into one of the usual tropes. On the one hand, she seems to act like a foil for Ritsu's shenanigans, but on the other her shyness and fear of anything morbid is easily exploited. Moreover, she is neither overly "tsun" nor "dere" and her character design doesn't give too much away in terms of personality traits.

In any case, she seems to have earned her popularity. I'm not about to board the train yet until we get an episode that focuses solely on her, but I am considering buying a ticket.

I understand that Mio is just a fictional character, but it's not appropriate to call her "this one" =/

Back to the topic, i agree that what you said is true at some degrees. Not only Mio, but the first time i realise Haruhi is not the kind of character i presumed she should be, i also almost jumped with excitement.

While i can't predict future episodes, my hunch say she will be liked more as the anime process, not less =]
